Two Major Bundles Happening Right Now…

Even more fun, both bundles support the fantastic AbleGamers.com charity. I’ve talked about AbleGamers.com a few times over the last week or so. They are stunning.

Both bundles also have a volume of Fiction River for a selection of short stories. And the new Dark Crimes Bundle also has a Year’s Best Crime and Mystery volume in it. Talk about a lot of reading.

Moonscapes Bundle has one anthology and nine science fiction novels.

Dark Crimes Bundle has two anthologies and eight crime novels.

Folks, this is some great reading here.

And my novel Kill Game: A Cold Poker Gang Mystery is in this Dark Crimes Bundle. It is the first book in that series and even though the books in the series stand alone, you can see the origin of my series. It is a puzzle mystery novel.

Let me tell you what Kristine Kathryn Rusch said about the Dark Crimes Bundle after she put it together.

————–

I have only a handful of requirements of crime fiction—innovative characters, twisty plots, concrete settings, and great voice. Not many mystery writers manage to hit each requirement. I’ve read so much crime fiction that I’m hard to surprise. I get irritated when I can’t “see” the setting. I don’t want to hang out with the same kind of characters who show up on TV. And I really want to hear someone whisper in my ear as I’m reading.

I love the work of each writer in this bundle. In one way or another, I’ve worked with each one of them. I’m not the only one who recognizes their quality either. We have New York Times bestsellers, Macavity winners, Shamus winners, Derringer winners, ITW Thriller Writer award winners, and international bestsellers.

We have first books in some great ongoing series. We have some stellar short story collections, which will allow you to sample the work of even more writers. We have historicals—from 1931 Berlin to 1981 New Orleans. We have 21st century stories—from internet stalking to teenage bullying. We have international crime fiction—from London grave robbers to a Toronto medical mystery. And, with the inclusion of more than 30 short stories, we not only cover every single mystery and crime subgenre, we also manage to sample stories from Grand Masters and first-timers alike.

If you like mystery and crime fiction as much as I do, you’ll love this bundle. And if you’re new to the genre, this bundle will introduce you to enough authors to influence your reading for years to come.

Also, in the spirit of adventure, let me also point out our charity. In the past twenty years, the online gaming world has become a major place for people all over the world to interact with each other. AbleGamers makes it possible for people with disabilities to participate, by providing everything from equipment personalized for each person’s needs to advice to the game developers on how to make their entertainment accessible.

Entertainment takes our mind off the troubles in the world, even when we’re exploring the world’s dark corners, as we do in this bundle. As you pick up a copy of this bundle, please consider throwing in a few dollars to help AbleGamers. You’ll get great books to read, and someone somewhere will get a shiny piece of equipment to help them find a few hours of escape as well.

Thanks! – Kristine Kathryn Rusch
